Report: Jets sign Tomlinson to two-year deal
Football Betting Lines
03/14/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Jets have reportedly inked running back LaDainian Tomlinson to a two-year deal.
Financial terms were not available, according to the New York Daily News.
The likely Hall of Fame back spent his entire nine-year career with San Diego before being released upon the opening of free agency. The Jets, meanwhile, seem to have found a replacement for Thomas Jones, who also was released for salary cap purposes.
Tomlinson will now team up in the same backfield with Shonn Greene and possibly Leon Washington, who is a restricted free agent after missing most of last season with a leg injury.
The Chargers made the former TCU star the fifth overall pick of the 2001 NFL Draft, and he has not disappointed, recording 12,490 rushing yards, 3,955 receiving yards and 153 touchdowns. He currently ranks eighth on the NFL's all-time rushing list and third all-time in touchdowns.
Despite the gaudy numbers, Tomlinson has slowed in the last two seasons. He's recorded career-lows in rushing yards for two consecutive years and ran for only 730 yards and 12 scores through 14 games in 2009. It was the first season in which Tomlinson did not crack the 1,100-yard barrier.
Tomlinson's best season landed him MVP hardware in 2006, when he ran for a career-high 1,815 rushing yards and scored 31 total touchdowns to set a league record.
He was part of a draft-day deal in 2001 with the Falcons that netted Michael Vick for Atlanta and Tomlinson and reigning Super Bowl MVP Drew Brees for the Chargers.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
